The Review-Journal portrays this as a way to protect its content – prohibiting other outlets from...
Good morning, everyone. Confession time: Yes, I was glancing at the BCS game during “Ralston Reports” last night. I guess I was petrified of some miracle Irish comeback. Truth is, I used to like Notre Dame ion the Joe Theisman days.

Not a thing. But it just shows that, unlike in politics and life, I can...
